eDiscovery in a Post-COVID World
The COVID-19 pandemic transformed how businesses and their employees work almost overnight. For those of us handling litigation and regulatory matters, the pandemic demanded substantial changes to how we conduct eDiscovery. As the world struggles to contain COVID-19 for the foreseeable future, we expect many of these changes to remain in place, and we anticipate new adjustments in reaction to evolving circumstances. In this article we consider what the litigation and regulatory landscape may look like as COVID-19 ravages the world’s systems and economies, and we explore how organizations can effectively carry out eDiscovery in this environment.
